I just miss the days of the 45 minute episode, 24 episode season. I cancelled my subscription after I watched Man vs Bee which is a single movie pretending to be a TV series. It solidified in my head the direction Netflix is going is 10 minute episodes.
Nothing negative towards Rowan, he's great. Netflix is not.
- crazygringo 3y agoFunny, not me. There were so many filler episodes, so much mediocre quality. I infinitely prefer an 8-, 10-, or 12-episode season that tells exactly how much story the writers actually have for the season, and not any more. And where the writers actually have the time to make those episodes great, rather than be forced to crank out whatever state a story happens to be in at the end of each week's deadline. I don't ever want to go back to the weekly 22/24-episode seasons.
- slillibri 3y agoTo follow on to this, I would love to see more fully formed 1-3 season shows. The vast majority of shows go off the rails after 4 or more seasons and at that point an ending is almost irrelevant.
- throwitaway222 3y agoI guess what I'm missing is Deep Space Nine type of writing and content. Sure there were a few filler episodes, but the writing was excellent. The dominion/Cardasian war was the best content on TV I've ever seen.
